Egg Dog: When eggs are cooked on the bottom and just cooked on top, slide omelette onto a plate. Place cheese cubes or strips in a line close to one end. Roll up, starting at end with cheese. Place cooked bacon strips and rolled omelette in hot dog bun.

Using the proper skillet or pan is important to successful omelette making. The ideal skillet for a 1, 2 or 3-egg omelette is about 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter at the base. It should be shallow with sloping sides to make it easier to slide the omelette out of the skillet and onto a plate.

An omelette can be make quickly and easier if the skillet is hot when the egg mixture is added. The skillet is hot enough when a drop of water rolls around instead of bursting into steam immediately.

Preparing individual omelettes, rather than one large one, will result in lighter and fluffier omelettes that are easier to handle.

The Basic Omelette recipe can be multiplied for as many servings as you need. Use 1/2 cup (125 mL) of egg mixture for each 2-egg omelette and 3/4 cup (175 mL) for a 3-egg omelette.
